Oh, I wouldn't dream of suggesting complete removal of the help text, but leaving the single line at the beginning is not an improvement. What's on that single line is not particularly useful but that is a separate issue. Moving everything down will hurt ONLY when (1) the rebase is about a large series (more than 24 commits in vt100) AND (2) the user hasn't run "rebase -i" before and does not know that there is a reminder insn at the end. Now is it likely for a newbie to run "rebase -i" with 20-30 commits and that invocation is his first "rebase -i" invocation in his life? The new help line at the end is helpful, by the way. I always had "Huh?" moment, and did ^Z followed by kill %% instead. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
